FAQs
Does this vest include the 1.5-liter bladder?

How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the Salomon size guide and measure your chest circumference to ensure the SensiFit construction provides the intended snug fit.
Is the material machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash the vest with cool water and mild soap to maintain the elasticity and life of the mesh fabric.

Troubleshooting
Vest feels bouncy while running
Tighten the front adjustment straps and ensure the rear compression straps are pulled snug against your gear.
Flasks are difficult to insert
Ensure the pockets are not being blocked by overstuffed gear in adjacent compartments and use a slight twisting motion when sliding flasks in.
Vest irritates skin
Check that the vest is not adjusted too tightly; use the adjustable sternum straps to distribute pressure more evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, adjust the front tension straps while the vest is loaded to mimic race-day weight. The vest is compatible with the Salomon Custom Quiver for external pole mounting. For care, hand wash the vest in cool water using mild soap to protect the technical mesh fabrics. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as these can break down the elastic components of the SensiFit system. Always ensure the vest is completely air-dried away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the material.
